3 Unexpected Benefits of Quitting Porn

Are there any benefits of quitting porn? If you’re struggling with a porn addiction, you may be wondering if there’s a light at the end of the tunnel. When things get tough, you need to be reminded of what you’re ultimately fighting for. Here are 3 benefits of quitting porn that you may not have anticipated.

3 Benefits of Quitting Porn

1. It makes you sexier.

Quitting porn can lead to less anxiety, less depression, more focus, and more overall confidence. What do women find exceedingly attractive? A man who is confident and comfortable in his own skin. There is also evidence that testosterone peaks in a man’s system when he’s not regularly masturbating, which can lead to being more attractive overall on a physiological level to the opposite sex.

One anonymous porn-quitter shared: “Quit porn and off all medication and my anxiety is non-existent. My memory and focus are sharper than ever. Huge ‘chick magnet’ and my erectile dysfunction is gone too. I seriously think I had a rebirth, a second chance at life. Today, on my 109th day of a streak, I feel happy, confident, social, smart, capable of meeting any challenge.”

2. It makes women more beautiful than ever.

Nothing kills attraction to real, human women quite like the world of pornography. Once you’ve been inundated with images of labiaplasties, totally hairless bodies, bleached anuses, and fake breasts, it can become difficult to find the beauty in the glorious imperfection of actual females. But when you begin to starve your eyes of such overwhelming stimuli, you’ll be amazed by how breathtaking real women start to become. (Spoiler alert: they were always gorgeous. You just weren’t paying attention.)

3. Get better at life

Author and sex essayist David Deida argues that “the way men ejaculate typically mirrors the way they interact with the world at large.” So for example, quit masturbating and use the newfound energy to take on the world, not your junk. At the root of Deida’s concepts is the idea that most masculine energy comes from pent-up sexual drive, so when men allow that drive to build and not be released at will, they can potentially see more energy and ambition in other areas of their lives.
